Errr. It is the training log, sort of.
training
I don't have a plan. That will wait until nearer the dates of next years events. What I do have is a strategy.
- have fun
- keep consistency
- gently increase the number of sessions.
I have to admit I have failed to go swimming. Unfortunately, the location of the pool, hotel, and client site and pool opening times mean that it is impractical. I would only get 10 mins in the water. There is a confidence thing going on too, possibly.
I have had some nice runs - being away from home means this is a running week. A session with a slow km, a km above 5km race pace, a slower km etc for 5km. I was rather tired and this was hard work. Meant to run at 5mins/km for the slow ones, and 4 min per km for the fast ones. Missed the fast time a bit (although waiting to cross streets probably meant the intensity was there. But the middle km was too slow.
That was Monday. Also ran on Tuesday. Was going to go longer and slower, but that was too boring. So decided to run the first and last km at 5 min pace, with each one in between faster than the others. Did that ok. Endo giving me a best 5km time of 22 mins. So ok really.
Tempted to run yesterday, but logistics meant I didn't have the time. So took a Boris bike out for a 30min ride from hotel to restaurant.
